It provides a webview. Would love to have a Firefox one.

There is GeckoView. It's what the current Firefox is built on and can be used by any Android app as a replacement for web view.

Not quite. It can be used when any app calls the Android custom tab API. It is not a drop in replacement for Android's Webview.

See https://geckoview.dev
